This is a small off grid system installed in Havelock, near Blenheim. The system is designed to power a shed on a farm which requires lighting, stock drinking water pump, power tools, small fridge and mobile phone charging.

The solar panels are ground mounted due to shading from trees on the shed roof which would have reduced the solar systems performance.

This is an off grid system we have installed on a shed in Invercargill. The client is going to live in the shed while the house is being built and so the house will connect to the shed for power, which means one off grid power system will supply the shed and the house.

The solar panels are tilted up at 45deg to achieve the best possible performance annually and in particular for Winter when the sun angles are lower.

A system like this is design to run a standard family home which is designed to be efficient.
